The barge is a flagship part of the government's plan to cut the cost of housing asylum seekers and deter dangerous Channel crossings by migrants.
'No-choice basis'The group of men were briefly housed on the barge when the bacteria was found in the onboard water system.

In an open letter previously, some of The Men expressed " shock and fear" over The Discovery of Legionella and said they had faced " isolation and loneliness" since being moved off and housed in a hotel.
